New EW Scans!
This week's Entertainment Weekly had a very interesting captioned photo that Ronald Moore made comments on, and he hinted around at what's to come for Season 4.

Spoilers through the end of Season 3.

	hmmm...interesting! thanks for posting the scans! :) (Reply to this)

	Hmmm... the final cylon is one that is not at this table. That leaves: Cally (unlikely since the child is a hybrid) Dee Doctor Cottle Felix Gaeta Romo Lampkin? Am I missing anyone? It is not likely to be someone that has already died... but someone we know on screen. (Reply to this) (Thread)(Expand)

	ack_attack 2008-01-04 08:14 pm UTC (link)
	I think it's Gaeta. Although it would be totally nuts if it was Cally and that baby is actually all Cylon. Maybe those final 5 can reproduce and that's what sets them apart! Although I doubt it's Cally haha. I reeeally don't like her. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)(Expand)

	WTF?!? :o Thank you for the scans, this is really interesting and food for LOTS of speculation. So I guess this is supposed to represent the last supper? Is RDM fooling with us saying that the last cylon is not on the picture? I can't believe he would give that away. As for Roslin - I don't think the cancer is what it seems to be.

	I want to know how Sharon and Helo are looking at, I think it's either Chief or Six... And I wonder if just their positions at the table are significant - the fact that Lee and Papadama are so far away from each other and Lee's on the President's side and whatnot. Or even that Tigh and Bill are so far away from one another. Oh man. I could stare at this forever. (Reply to this) (Thread)(Expand)

It looks like Helo and Athena are reacting to either Natalie or Tigh. Tyrol's too close by, and their eyes are trained on something beyond him.

If it's Tigh, what is he turning a "blind eye" to that would piss them off? Is he going to continue his anti-Cylon stance even more as a way of compensating for the fact that he is a Cylon himself? Or is it something else?

Actually, they could be reacting to Roslin and whatever she's doing, and given that both Sharon and Karl have reason to dislike her (and vice versa), that would make sense.

Lee's business suit and thoughtful stance cement some theorizing that he's going to follow not in his father's footsteps, but in his grandfather's, by becoming a lawyer. This also squares with the Sci-Fi promo where he's facing
the screen in a shirt and tie, and the voiceover says "We make our own laws now."

Notice that Kara and Anders are missing the tattoos. That probably wasn't intentional, but it is interesting. ;)

A few observations:

A. Baltar's coat is pretty pimp.
B. The book in front of Tigh and Helo/Boomer looks to have some sort of Colonial Fleet symbol on the binding and also looks like a three-ring binder, not a bound book - which the Scrolls of Pythia, at least, were. Perhaps it's symbolic of embracing human ideals - or not.
C. Lee's parted hair is terrible.
D. I immediately thought OMG! Horcrux! when I saw the goblet. LOL!
E. The single most important piece of information from the picture is the fact that the new Six's name is Natalie. Combined with the "new agenda," I reach the conclusion that Boomer/Helo are looking at Natalie, who is pointing back at them. They don't know that Chief is a Cylon (yet), so they don't know that Hera isn't the only savior!baby around... perhaps it's more monotheistic religion or something. Or maybe I'm on Chamalla.

	ack_attack 2008-01-04 08:53 pm UTC (link)
	A. Would you expect any less? B. I hadn't even noticed that. C. LOL his hair reminds me of Dan Radcliffe's D. I hope Voldemort is the final Cylon. E. LOL I wish I was on Chamalla. I think Natalie is pointing at Six...but really I have no idea. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)(Expand)

Lee is the only one who's not facing towards the centre. If we're to interpret this as one interprets Da Vinci's "Last Supper", that would make him the default "Judas" figure as the comments suggest. Note, however, that Lee and his father are both seemingly lost in thought.

I'd hazard a guess that Athena and Helo are reacting to Natalie.

My own personal fanwank is to have Zak be the final Cylon. If not him, though, I'd settle for Billy!

	ack_attack 2008-01-04 09:14 pm UTC (link)
	...if Zak is the final Cylon my head will explode haha. And yeah the Judas thing is interesting, I wonder if that is just about Lee and Bill, or it's about Lee and everyone. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)(Expand)

	I think Helo and Sharon are reacting to Caprica Six. She was all about their baby as the "god's next generation" and "the shape of things to come" wasn't she? That would make much more sense to me than anything else. (Reply to this) (Thread)

ok heres some more thoughts hehe

the books significance -
book closed infront tigh - hes closed to be a cylon and wants nothing to do with it
paper and pen on Apollo - writing his own path
Baltar turning his back on the pen and paper - turning his back on what Apollo has done for him and everything it stands for.
book infront of Starbuck - her story is a mystery now..shes back from the dead and everything shed done in her past is forgotten cos they all think shes a cylon
book infront of Athena and Helo - shes open to being a cylon and hes open to her being a cylon. They want a future.

next -
Roslin with burning offering - burning the past or burning an offering to the human cylons

The goblet infront of the missing person - the holy grail? the 5th Cylon.
glass of water full infront of Anders- glass half full.hes just happy to have Starbuck back
Glass half full infront of Baltar - hes turning into the holyman but not sure hes quite happy with that.......as hes asking Six for guidence
the knife in Chief's hand - Knowing he has another hybrid child maybe hel go to any lengths to protect it knowing what happened to Hera.

other -
Adama looking forwards - contemplating the future
Roslin looking at Adama - it reminds me of a "what are you thinking " stare as she doesnt know what hel do next to what shes doing.

Natalie accusing point towards Athena and Apollo - maybe her agenda is to get all the cylons to leave the humans alone and Athena naturally doesnt want to leave Helo...?

hehe you can tell i did arthistory in college cant you HAHA
